If this feature is programmed on, it will automat- ically arm and lock the doors 30 seconds after the last protected entrance is closed.

Tamper Warning at Disarm If the alarm had been triggered while you were away from the vehicle, upon disarming, a 4-chirp tamper disarm warning will occur. In addition to the 4-chirp warning, the status LED will flash a distinctive number of times to indicate which alarm zone set off the alarm.
Nuisance Prevention System To prevent continuous alarm cycles from faulty and over-sensitive sensors or an attempted theft that has left a protected door open, the Nuisance Prevention System will monitor all trigger inputs. If the alarm triggers (3) times with a 60-minute period from the same sensor, the NPS will interpret this as a false trigger.
